Dynamic delivery of intensity modulated beams (dIMRT) requires not only accurate verification of leaf positioning but also a control on the speed of motion. The latter is a parameter that has a major impact on the dose delivered to the patient. Time consumed in quality assurance (QA) procedures is an issue of relevance in any radiotherapy department. Electronic portal imaging dosimetry (EPID) can be very efficient for routine tests. The purpose of this work is to investigate the ability of our EPID for detecting small errors in leaf positioning, and to present our daily QA procedures for dIMRT based on EPID.A Varian 2100 CD Clinac equipped with an 80 leaf Millennium MLC and with amorphous silicon based EPID (aS500, Varian) is used. The daily QA program consists in performing: Stability check of the EPID signal, Garden fence test, Sweeping slit test, and Leaf speed test.The EPID system exhibits good long term reproducibility. The mean portal dose at the centre of a 10 × 10 cm(2) static field was 1.002 ± 0.004 (range 1.013-0.995) for the period evaluated of 47 weeks. Garden fence test shows that leaf position errors of up to 0.2 mm can be detected. With the Sweeping slit test we are able to detect small deviations on the gap width and errors of individual leaves of 0.5 and 0.2 mm. With the Leaf speed test problems due to motor fatigue or friction between leaves can be detected.This set of tests takes no longer than 5 min in the linac treatment room. With EPID dosimetry, a consistent daily QA program can be applied, giving complete information about positioning/speed MLC.
